About the WAPO article in regards to Mueller's letter to Barr.

Note that Mueller sent his letter BEFORE Barr had reached a final decision on how, and in what form, the Mueller Report would be released.
washingtonpost.com/world/national…
"They then discussed whether additional context from the report would be helpful and could be quickly released. However, the Attorney General ultimately determined that it would not be productive to release the report in piecemeal fashion.”
“The Attorney General and the Special Counsel agreed to get the full report out with necessary redactions as expeditiously as possible."
Mueller was actually concerned with media representations and interpretations of Barr's letter and specifically stated he did not think Barr's representation was inaccurate:
In other words, the media is now misinterpreting [misrepresenting] a letter from Mueller complaining that the media was misinterpreting [misrepresenting] a letter from Barr.
The WAPO article will now be used as fuel by the Left to falsely taint Barr with accusations of wrongdoing.
Another complete distortion.

Mueller did not say Barr was sabotaging the Report.

Mueller said Barr's letter was accurate.

Mueller said he was concerned that news coverage "was misguided and creating public misunderstandings about the office’s work."
The timing of the follow-on NYT story appears so close as to have been coordinated.

Same nonsense and nothing more than "feeder organizations" used for dissemination. Fake News.

Nellie shared news of Ukrainian Black Ledger w/Bruce Ohr, Lisa Holtyn, Joe Wheatley and Ivana Nizich on May 30, 2016 via email article.

It Later took out Manafort.

Nellie later shared news of Carter Page's visit to Moscow - tho this was already known to some.

Carter Page was already being watched by the time of Nellie's Aug 29 email.

Stefan Halper met w/Page in London on July 11, 2016 immediately following Page's July 7-8 Moscow visit.
Holtyn was a senior intelligence adviser at the DOJ Criminal Division’s Organized Crime and Racketeering Section.

Nizich, and Wheatley were trial attorneys in the DOJ’s Organized Crime and Gang Section.

More important is that Nellie shared news of the Black Ledger with Bruce Ohr, Lisa Holtyn, Joe Wheatley and Ivana Nizich on May 30, 2018.

Took out Manafort.

Serhiy Leshchenko, the source of the Black Ledger leak, was also a source for Nellie and Fusion.

In response to conflict of interest accusations.

Barr: I haven't been the only decision-maker here. Let's take Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein...He has 30 years experience. And he had a number of senior prosecutors involved in this.
Harris: Rosenstein a key witness in the firing of Comey.

Although somewhat convoluted, Harris now seems to be trying to taint Rosenstein.
Expect more of this tactic and increased focus as Dems wake up to Rosenstein's role.

Seth's @SethAbramson lengthy thread on his take away from Barr's planned release of the redacted #Mueller report, the event's leading up to it, with links to related items. Definitely worth your time to read carefully. #GeeksResist #TheResistance #HeroesResist #VeteransResist
UPDATE 1: My friend Bryan @ "Why Now?' posted a blog with links to various related items of interest. Please check them out also.

UPDATE 2: Digby @ Hullabaloo posted an article w/ a possible reason Mueller let Don Jr. off the hook so easily! Explanation by Election Law expert Rick Hasen. It was a bad decision by Mueller IMO.

I’m sorry, but this is weird.

First, if you’re confident in your decision, you don’t need to defend it. You just make it and move on. nytimes.com/2019/04/04/us/…
Second, there’s a strange mismatch between the pace of the super-fast “no obstruction” decision, versus not-so-fast #Mueller report vetting.

Obviously, Barr wanted to get the no obstruction finding out in his summary letter.
Reviewing thousands of pages of evidence to make a complex, fact-intensive legal conclusion on obstruction ought to be as time intensive as vetting a 400 page report for material that shouldn’t be released.

The fast-train/slow-train contrast is odd.

Tucked away in this article is a highly significant revelation (no doubt made inadvertently) by two anonymous DOJ officials. 1/10 tinyurl.com/y696fjj7
I have argued for a long time that the question to ask about when the MUELLER REPORT will be submitted and released is not: “When will Mueller have ALL the evidence he could obtain?” 2/10
The appropriate question is: “When will #Mueller have ENOUGH evidence?”--that is, enough evidence for Congress to proceed with impeaching Trump and removing him from office and indicting people for campaign collusion. 3/10

What happened to the #Mueller hype?
What happened to the Mueller will take down #POTUS threats [@JohnBrennan]?
Was MUELLER the 'insurance' policy aka #BLOCKADE designed to limit/restrict POTUS' ability to enforce the law?
[#TRAITORS]
"complexities, opaqueness & length of counterintel investigations, I’d be surprised if #Mueller was able to uncover breadth of this #conspiracy. More digging will have to be done. But there’ll be crimes. & we better get to see them://t.co/seYfCs0d6q
"A concise #Mueller report would mark the end of the beginning, not the beginning of the end, argues @neal_katyal"

#Barr reply to @SenBlumenthal

“There are two different reports…Under the current regulations, the special counsel report is confidential. The report that goes public would be a report by the Attorney General.”

Opposite of reassuring that he'll make Mueller report public.
Senator @maziehirono follows up

"What I am hearing you saying is that...neither Congress nor public will get the Mueller report because that's confidential."

#Barr dodges: will release information "consistent with the regulations"—regulations which he says make it confidential!
Bingo

@SenFeinstein's precise followup:

"There is nothing in the regulations that prevent you from providing Mueller's report to Congress…the regs do not state that confidentiality means the report cannot be provided to Congress…Will you provide Mueller's report to Congress?"

Lindsey Graham is Nunes #2. Spouts Trump propaganda at #Barr hearing. Reads Strzok texts, slams Steele dossier, slams FBI opening counterintel investigation of Trump: “We’re relying on you to clean this place up…make sure they don’t have an agenda. Will u look into it?”—“I will”
#Barr says “nothing could be more dangerous than political interference” in an investigation. But also says it’s completely fine for a president to fire US attorneys for political reasons “because they’re political appointments” 🤔
#Barr: It would be a crime for president Trump to promise a pardon in exchange for a person not incriminating him in an investigation.
